The monument which the officers OF the
Russian Grenadier Regiment proposed TO
erect in memory of the grenadiers who
fell in November, 1877, at Plevna, will not
be erected in Bulgaria, as first proposed,
but in Moscow, where the grenaditrs are
stati,ned. The reason for this alteration
is the strained relations between Russia
and Bulgaria The splendid monument,
which is to be cons Bructtd after Nj. Scher-

the first being a furious Ba-hi- Bazouk
